Active Speaker System

This unit features an Active Speaker System that provides high sound quality in a single slim unit.
This unit does not require any satellite loudspeakers or speaker cabling, which are normally associated with

conventional surround sound systems.

Multi-function Remote Control

The supplied remote control can be used to control the TV connected to this unit.
The remote control has a TV hotkey that enables you to perform various operations with the simple press of a button.

You can adjust the volume, change the channel or customize the navigation menu of the TV using this Multi-function Remote
Control.

Special Sound Field mode

You can select from three different sound field modes (NEWS, CINEMA and MUSIC) depending on the type of the
source you want to enjoy.

Compatibility with various audio Technologies

This unit employs decoders compatible with Dolby Digital, DTS (Digital Theater Systems) and SFE (Sound Field Effect).

− Dolby Digital

This is the standard audio signal format used on DVDs and other purely digital media.
This surround technology delivers high-quality digital audio of up to 5.1 discrete channels to produce a
directional and more realistic effect.

− DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

DTS provides a discrete 5.1 CH digital audio signal for both music and movie contents and uses less

compression than Dolby Digital for richer sound.

− SFE (Sound Field Effect) Using 32bit Audio Digital Signal Processing

Provides more realistic surround sound with normal stereo audio sources.

Wireless Subwoofer (

HT-WS1

only)

Samsung’s wireless module does away with cables running between the main unit and the subwoofer.
Instead, the subwoofer connects to a compact wireless module that communicates with the main unit.

Wiring the Main Power Supply Plug (UK Only)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of
the plug and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.
Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required, it must be of the same colour as
the fuse fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a
suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.
However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a
mains socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
Never attempt to insert bare wires directly into a mains socket. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:– BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE
As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:–
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK.
The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
